Hello there. &nbsp;A user of mine has a dual headed video card. &nbsp;He has two 19 inch monitors and wants to run 2 instances of PowerPoint XP on a Windows XP Pro box so that he can view two sets of slides side by side. &nbsp;Why? Dunno.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I've been looking at the SDI/MDI thing a bit and I thought this would do the trick. &nbsp;Alas, I made the change that Microsoft suggests in KB 230684 &nbsp;- WD2000: New Word Instance Appears to Run for Each Document where is tates how to turn off SDI for Excel and Powerpoint. &nbsp;It isn't working the way it &quot;should&quot;<br />
<br />
Any thoughts on how to make it work?<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />
